LT: Leno LG: Norwell OC: Roullier RG: Turner RT: Cosmi Depth: Charles, Schweizer, Lucas, Paul Now that's some serious outside the box thinking by our front office. Turner is a super fast base stealing burner and is seemingly a bad throw away from an inside the park 4 bagger at any moment. Just don't know if he has enough size and strength to be an every down player. I sure wouldn't bet against the kid though. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BRAVEONTHEWARPATH93 Posted May 2, 2022 Share Posted May 2, 2022 There’s a ton of folks annoyed about this signing bc he played in Carolina. He’s a well known multiple time pro bowl vet coming in for 3M. I question your football knowledge if this upsets you. 10 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RWJ Posted May 2, 2022 Share Posted May 2, 2022 www.nbcsportsedge.com/football/nfl/player/1100/trai-turnerWashington signed RG Trai Turner, formerly of the Steelers, to a one-year, $3 million contract.Turner has experience playing under Washington head coach Ron Rivera dating back to their days in Carolina. He most recently played for the Steelers, starting all 17 games for them in 2021. With Washington being Turner's fourth team in as many seasons, he has become the epitome of a journeyman. Despite the lack of long-term interest in his services, Turner played well in Pittsburgh and was ranked as Pro Football Focus's No. 31 guard last year. His time with Rivera likely means he has the inside track to start at right guard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koolblue13 Posted May 2, 2022 Share Posted May 2, 2022 Oline now has a QB that doesn't hold the ball for 8 seconds and a truck of a running back. Our offense is going to pop off big this year. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dswerdlw Posted May 2, 2022 Share Posted May 2, 2022 I like the signing. Anyone know Roullier's rehab status? With him and Larson coming off injuries, I wonder if Schweitzer will be playing center for a while between Trai Turner and Andrew Norwell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are a couple off off-seasons away from Norwell and Turner both getting huge market-setting contracts. Norwell to Jacksonville, Turner to San Diego. Prior to 2017 season Turner signed a 4 year, $45m deal Prior to 2018, Norwell signed a 5 year, $66m deal with the Jaguars Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FLSkinz83 Posted May 2, 2022 Share Posted May 2, 2022 I wonder if we're going to cut Schweitzer? His cap savings would be 4.8 mil. Maybe this is another swap similar to Flowers/Norwell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He will take unnecessary sacks but he has the big-play ability with his arm that we haven't had around here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right, I'm thinking that Schweitzer, who has played center, could be a better option than Ismael if Larsen and Roullier (both coming off injuries) are not ready to go for game 1.

Anselmheifer Posted May 2, 2022 Share Posted May 2, 2022 Love this signing. We have talent and depth all along the OL. Talent and depth at WR. Talent and depth at RB and TE. An actual QB. I feel like I'm taking crazy pills. If we resign Landon Collins, and find some LB depth, I'll feel pretty upbeat about the playoffs. Not sneaking in, but being a legitimate team from wire to wire. Man, it would make all the difference in the world for us if Sweat and Young just got back to their form from 2 years ago. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think we hate the iggles because they had a (barely) above .500 record? The Eagles are a hated division rival. I don't care if they win 1 game or 17, it won't change. Speaking of, how can a person be a fan of two teams that are long-time division rivals? I like and follow other NFL teams (I live in SoCal, and the Rams just won the 'Bowl) but I'll certainly never root for the eagles, cowboys, or giants. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, possibly but you want your OL to be fresh but at this time Larson is a pure C as is Ismael and right now I'd think that Wes is strictly RG but who knows for sure. We'll find out soon enough via RRs comments on Turner's signing or at some point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamesMadisonSkins Posted May 2, 2022 Share Posted May 2, 2022 I could find more to complain about than replacing Scherff and Flowers with Norwell and Turner, who are still 30 and under, and have a slew of pro bowls to their names and familiarity with the team. 5 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
